Alice Cooper Is Playing Golf Every Morning Despite Pandemic

Alice Cooper has a lot of love for his home state of Arizona, and that may have never been more evident than during this coronavirus pandemic when he can spend his 'solitary exercise' on the golf course.

During a recent interview with Forbes surrounding his new podcast, Cooper was asked how he's holding up. It frankly seems like he's thriving.

"The great thing in Arizona is that the golf courses are open," Cooper said. "They say it's an outdoor event, you're not touching anything but your own equipment. And they want people out doing something — walking, outdoor activities and they said that is the one sport that is not a contact sport."

He says the family goes out early in the morning when there's no one else playing; they're back home by 9:30 or 10 a.m. The exercise makes Cooper feel less "guilty sitting watching TV all day."

Cooper returned from touring in Europe last month and was promptly forced to postpone the U.S. leg of his tour with Tesla and Lita Ford due to the pandemic. He described an uneasy feeling traveling and playing concerts while the virus was creeping into Europe.
